Sepia in Publisher ?

[Phil]

When trying to add friends faces to an old pics of sepia tone, a brownish
tinge, I notice there is "Automatic, Grayscale, Eashout, Black and White"
but no sepia. Is there a way to get this effect ?

 

[°°°MS°Publisher°°°]

In a photo editing program that supports sepia.

Publisher is not a photographic re-touching program.

C=0, M=60, Y=81, K=63

1. Right click on your picture, choose Format Picture
2. Go to Picture Tab
3. Click on Recolor
4. Choose Color > More Colors
5. Go to the Custom Tab
6. Change the Color Model to CMYK
7. Enter the above CMYK figures for Sepia
8. Click > OK > OK > OK

Yes it was. Publisher isn't a photo editor - it's a DTP application. Some
people (you included) obviously don't know the difference.

??? Publisher isn't a photo editor, but it does indeed have photo
manipulation tools. One of which answered his question.

Wouldn't be too bothered BPC - I'm always more amused than annoyed at people
like this twerp with the usual bloated feeling of unjustified
self-importance. You always get one or two on every newsgroup ! ;-)

Thanks to Brian, I got what I was after, and the nitwit referred to didn't
have a clue, notice......

(I am repeating the mantra..."MS Publisher is not for high end jopbs but for
people to print on the inkjet sitting on their desk next to the
screen...etc")

Just a side note:

Colorizing photos is a capability of most composition programs (PageMaker,
Quark, etc).

And in these days of composite output (often to pdf) so files can be fed to
imposition and trapping engines on their way direct to plate, NONE of these
colorization processes produces trouble-free results. They are all major PIA
generators!

Colorized files usually require the print engine for the app to properly
separate them. And other separation schemes will see the image for what it
was before it was colorized or as rgb.

However, MSPub doesn't have a print engine. So the end result is RGB
anyway...so what the heck.

If the final product is to end up on press, it would be better to do the
manipulation in a photo editor and save it off as an eps then import that.

FWIW

What's my tongue got to do with anything?! And this is Usenet, love,
therefore it's everybody's business. If you don't like it, you have a very
simple choice - don't post.

Sarah,

I thought a proboscis (this spelling should be correct) is a nose, snout
or beak.

As an aside, I really would like EVERYONE in this NG to get along
together. I know, there are idiot posters who cannot or do not read a
manual, who post a question when the same one has been posted five
minutes and two posts earlier, but everyone should make an attempt to
get along. If you want to see a forum where there really is little in
the way of bickering, try the Serif forum. Probably more "regulars"
there than here, but no one tends to be nasty in their replies. It is
moderated, to a point, but everyone knows to be nice.

Mike
